"Last offseason, Mike Vrabel invested a second-round pick in Ohio State's top running back, TreVeyon Henderson. He had a breakout game against the Bucs with two long touchdown runs and followed that up with three more scores against the Jets. Henderson's development has been hindered only by the Patriots' coaching staff keeping him on the sidelines too often earlier in the season."
"Rhamondre Stevenson was thought to be a trade possibility the last offseason. After 2024, in which he fumbled seven times, as many times as he scored touchdowns, he was a prime candidate to be traded, especially after the pick of Henderson in the second round. Now, Brad Gagnon of Bleacher Report feels Rhamondre Stevenson is the team's most valuable trade chip."
The New England Patriots are headed to the NFL playoffs and possess a shifting running back hierarchy. TreVeyon Henderson, a recent second-round pick from Ohio State, has produced breakout performances and appears to be the clear lead back after multiple touchdown games. Rhamondre Stevenson still shows playmaking ability and remains of interest to other teams, but seven fumbles in 2024 have depressed his trade value. Trading Stevenson could yield limited return because of ball-security concerns, while Henderson’s emergence makes benching him unwise even if Stevenson returns.
